Synaptogenix (NASDAQ: SNPX) has announced a new collaboration with LSU Health New Orleans' Neuroscience Center of Excellence to test its polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) analogs for treating spinal cord injury (SCI). The company also received US Patent No. 12,016,837 for its PUFA analogs in treating neurodegenerative diseases.
The study will compare these analogs with Bryostatin in SCI treatment. Synaptogenix holds exclusive rights to these PUFA analogs, which have shown promise in earlier pre-clinical testing for various neurodegenerative diseases. Like Bryostatin-1, these analogs activate the enzyme PKC epsilon (PKC ε), but at a different site, potentially offering a next-generation treatment for neurodegenerative conditions.
Synaptogenix has received FDA authorization for an Investigational New Drug (IND) application to conduct a clinical trial on Bryostatin-1, a potential treatment for multiple sclerosis (MS).
The trial, which will be held at the Cleveland Clinic Neurological Institute's Mellen Center, aims to evaluate the drug's effects on synaptic health and cognitive function using advanced 7-tesla MRI technology.
Synaptogenix highlights the need to address cognitive decline in MS, with the trial fully funded and expected to start soon.
Preclinical data shows that Bryostatin-1 may enhance synapse health, reduce inflammation, and prevent neurological degradation.
Synaptogenix has a strong financial position with $26.3 million in cash, supporting ongoing and future research efforts.
